About The Odyssey:  Bob Bryan has successfully encapsulated
the expertise of thirty-one award winning contemporary poets,
who expose their heart and soul in this exceptional DVD. GV6
The Odyssey; Poets, Passion and Poetry is a lyrical treat for
both the eyes and ears. It is fun enough to be entertaining
and informative enough to educate. These talented poets offer
excerpts of their work, and insights into their personal life.
They share their reasons for writing, the force that drives
them, their love of language and freedom of expression. As
they share their artistic struggles, frustrations, the
discipline required and even the stigma that comes with being
a poet, their collective creativity and honesty leap from the
screen!
